    • New Developments in Russian Regulation of Navigation on the Northern Sea Route 

      Solski, Jan Jakub (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      The regime of navigation on the Northern Sea Route (NSR) is still largely based on legislation adopted by the Soviet Union, and features certain deviations in the way Russia’s international legal rights and obligations are implemented. In recent years the Russian Federation has demonstrated interest in revising NSR legislation with the preparation of one single comprehensive Federal Act on the NSR, ...

    • A New Diving Pliocene Ardenna Shearwater (Aves: Procellariidae) from New Zealand 

      Tennyson, Alan J. D.; Salvador, Rodrigo Brincalepe; Tomotani, Barbara mizumo; Marx, Felix G. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2024-04-06)
      We report a new species of shearwater, Ardenna buchananbrowni sp. nov., from the Pliocene of New Zealand. It is both the smallest and oldest known diving member of the genus, demonstrating that this now abundant form of shearwater has had a long presence in southern oceans. Ardenna buchananbrowni sp. nov. is among the few extinct shearwaters described from the Southern Hemisphere and adds to an ...

    • New findings and an overall assessment of Norwegian biting midges (Diptera, Ceratopogonidae) 

      Dominiak, Patrycja; Stur, Elisabeth (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-06-24)
      Faunistic studies on biting midges conducted mostly in South Norway between 2006 and 2020, as well as a revision of available literature, resulted in a new comprehensive checklist of the species known from mainland Norway. In total, 21 genera and 216 species of Ceratopogonidae have been registered, of which as many as 165 are with Linnaean names. For the remaining 51 species interim names are given ...

    • A new genus of horse from Pleistocene North America 

      Heintzman, Peter D.; Zazula, Grant D.; MacPhee, Ross D. E.; Scott, Eric; Cahill, James A.; McHorse, Brianna K.; Kapp, Joshua D.; Stiller, Mathias; Wooller, Matthew J.; Orlando, Ludovic; Southon, John R.; Froese, Duane G.; Shapiro, Beth (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-28)
      The extinct ‘New World stilt-legged’, or NWSL, equids constitute a perplexing group of Pleistocene horses endemic to North America. Their slender distal limb bones resemble those of Asiatic asses, such as the Persian onager. Previous palaeogenetic studies, however, have suggested a closer relationship to caballine horses than to Asiatic asses. Here, we report complete mitochondrial and partial nuclear ...

    • New information on the Ediacaran-Cambrian transition in the Vestertana Group, Finnmark, northern Norway, from trace fossils and organic-walled microfossils 

      Högström, Anette; Jensen, Sören; Palacios, Teodoro; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      The Vestertana Group on the Digermul Peninsula, Finnmark, northern Norway, presents one of the few, potentially continuous Ediacaran– Cambrian sections in Scandinavia. Trace fossils provide the main age constraint, with the boundary traditionally placed at the base of the Breidvika Formation. Here, we provide trace-fossil evidence to show that this boundary is at least as low as the third cycle of ...

    • New integrated molecular approaches for investigating lake settlements in north-western Europe 

      Brown, Antony; Fonville, Thierry; van Hardenbroek, Maarten; Cavers, Graeme; Crone, Anne; McCormick, Finbar; Murray, Emily; MacKay, Helen; Whitehouse, Nicki J.; Henderson, Andrew C.G.; Barratt, Phil; Davies, Kim; Langdon, Peter; Alsos, Inger G.; pirrie, Duncan; Head, Katie (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-28)
      Lake settlements, particularly crannogs, pose several contradictions—visible yet inaccessible, widespread yet geographically restricted, persistent yet vulnerable. To further our understanding, we developed the integrated use of palaeolimnological (scanning XRF, pollen, spores, diatoms, chironomids, Cladocera, microcharcoal, biogenic silica, SEM-EDS, stable-isotopes) and biomolecular (faecal ...

    • A new interpretation of the sedimentary cover in the western Siljan Ring area, central Sweden, based on seismic data. 

      Juhlin, Christoffer; Sturkell, Erik; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R.; Lehnert, Oliver; Högström, Anette; Meinhold, Guido (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      Two new reflection seismic profiles over the Paleozoic successions of the western part of the Siljan Ring impact structure show a contrasting seismic signature. The more southerly c. 10 km long Mora profile reveals a highly disturbed structure, with only a few kilometers of relatively horizontally layered structures observed. However, interpretations of refracted arrivals in the data, that can be ...

    • New occurrences of Palaeopascichnus from the Stáhpogieddi Formation, Arctic Norway, and their bearing on the age of the Varanger Ice Age. 

      Jensen, Sören; Högström, Anette; Høyberget, Magne; Meinhold, Guido; McIlroy, Duncan; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R.; Taylor, Wendy L.; Agic, Heda; Palacios, Teodoro (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-09-18)
      We report on new occurrences of the late Ediacaran problematicum <i>Palaeopascichnus</i> (Protista?) from the Stáhpogieddi Formation, Arctic Norway. The stratigraphically lowest occurrences are in beds transitional between the Lillevannet and Indreelva members: the highest in the second cycle of the Manndrapselva Member, stratigraphically close to the lowest occurrences of Cambrian-type trace fossils. ...

      Blix, Hilde Synnøve Johansen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-25)
      “No Delay?” – Online teaching using low latency technology. Playing music together using low latency technology has been possible for some years now, provided fast and robust digital networks. The accessibility of low latency networks has been limited, and the available software has been complicated to install and use. At the music conservatory in Tromsø, associate professor Geir Davidsen has ...

    • Nordlendingen tar de geologiske ressursene i bruk: et arkeologisk perspektiv 

      Skandfer, Marianne; Jørgensen, Roger; Wickler, Stephen (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2022-10)
      Mennesker har til alle tider nyttiggjort seg stein og mineraler. Fra steinalderen dominerer funn fra boplasser, men mye er også løsfunn av kjent opprinnelser. Vi vet lite om hvor steinråstoffet i Nordland ble hentet fra i steinalderen. Funn fra jernalder og middelalder stammer hovedsakelig fra boplasser og graver. Fra disse periodene har vi også kjennskap til lokale produksjonsplasser og steinbrudd. ...

    • Nordlysobservatoriet 50 år 

      Holt, Olav; Solheim, Jan-Erik; Brekke, Asgeir (Book; Bok, 1980)
      Nordlysobservatoriet i Tromsø ble høytidelig innviet 6. august 1930. Et 25-års jubileum ble markert med en tilstelning 30. juli 1955. Ved 25-års jubileet i 1955 ble det utarbeidet et festskrift - men det var ikke penger til å få det trykt. Desto gledeligere er det at vi til 50-års jubileet får anledning til et spesialhefte av OTTAR for å beskrive Nordlysobservatoriets historie og virksomhet, et hefte ...

    • Nordvegen på Hillesøy - Utgravning av båtgrav fra yngre jernalder 

      Niemi, Anja Roth (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2018-03-01)
      Sommeren 2017 ble det funnet bein etter menneske spredt på en påbegynt vegtrasé ovenfor Nordvegen på Hillesøy på sørvest-sida av Kvaløya utenfor Tromsø. Den arkeologiske undersøkelsen viste at beina stammer fra en båtgrav fra yngre jernalder. Litt over halve båten var fortsatt bevart, mens resten var ødelagt av anleggsarbeidet. I den bevarte delen lå fortsatt bekken og underkropp på plass. Båten var ...

    • Northern Norway paleofire records reveal two distinct phases of early human impacts on fire activity 

      Topness, Rebecca G; Vachula, Richard S; Balascio, Nicholas L; D’Andrea, William J; Pugsley, Genevieve; Dia, Moussa; Tingley, Martina; Curtin, Lorelei; Wickler, Stephen Kent; Anderson, R Scott (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-07-31)
      Paleofire records document fire’s response to climate, ecosystem changes, and human-activity, offering insights into climate-fire-human relationships and the potential response of fire to anthropogenic climate change. We present three new lake sediment PAH records and a charcoal record from the Lofoten Islands, Norway to evaluate the Holocene fire history of northern Norway and examine human impacts ...

    • Notelesing, hva slags lesing er det? : didaktiske betraktninger rundt hørelærefaget - sett i lysav språkopplæringsteorier 

      Blix, Hilde (Book; Bok, 2004-03)
      Denne boka er et forsøk på å se et av musikkundervisningens støttefag, hørelære, fra noen nye synsvinkler. Jeg har søkt å finne svar på spørsmål som dreier seg om hvordan vi leser noter, og hvorfor vi bruker gitte metoder i hørelærefaget for å trene opp et godt gehør. Hvorfor er det så viktig å synge? Hvordan leser vi egentlig noter? Kan teorier om språkopplæring gi oss noen svar på slike spørsmål? ...

    • Notelesingsundervisning integrert i amatørkorprøver 

      Nilsen, Birger André (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2014-05-06)
      Tittel: Notelesingsundervisning integrert i amatørkorprøver. Hensikt: Hensikten har vært å undersøke hvorvidt det å integrere notelesingsundervisning som en fast del av korprøvene i et amatørkor kan være hensiktsmessig. Fokusområder har vært å undersøke om undervisningen påvirket korsangernes notelesingsferdigheter, samt holdninger til og bruk av noter. Teoretisk forankring: I tillegg til ...

    • Nyelv Nedre Vest. Utgravning av hustufter og boplass fra yngre steinalder 

      Niemi, Anja Roth; Oppvang, Janne (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2018-01-09)
      Prosjektet ble iverksatt som konsekvens av reguleringsplan for bygging av ny bru over Nyelv og utbedring av tilstøtende deler av E6. På Gressbakken Nedre Øst lå det berørte området rett ved eksisterende vegskjæring, hvor mye av opprinnelig terreng allerede var fjernet i forbindelse med tidligere vegbygging. Det ble foretatt en mindre undersøkelse her, uten at det framkom funn eller andre indikasjoner ...
